About this position

Queen Mary University of London is advertising a Postdoctoral Research Associate in GPU LES and Aeroacoustics within the School of Engineering and Materials Science (Faculty of Science & Engineering). This is a 12-month, full-time post based in London, United Kingdom, supporting a highly competitive grant-funded R&D project with GPU-Prime Ltd under the SME ATI programme.

The project focuses on developing and validating a GPU-native Large Eddy Simulation (LES) toolchain for unsteady aerodynamics and aeroacoustics. The successful candidate will contribute to high-fidelity CFD-CAA validation and modelling for the ATI-IUK project, including HPC runs and advanced post-processing/analysis using data-driven methods.

Suitable applicants should have a PhD (or be close to completion), or equivalent research experience at PhD level in a relevant area. Strong experience with LES, Computational Aeroacoustics, and GPGPU computing is required; knowledge of CABARET and data-driven analysis methods is desirable.

Funding details provided in the ad indicate a salaried post with a salary range of £39,187–£42,933 per annum. This is not a scholarship or studentship; it is a fixed-term research appointment.

To apply, use the Queen Mary University of London jobs portal and review the job pack for full details before submitting your application by the closing date.
